The most exceptional thing about these headphones is the construction. Made of birch, they are molded just like a skateboard. The wood is thin, the transfer of sound, presumably, is thick. What’s for sure is that the end product is light on the cranium.

The second most exceptional point is that the headphones feature the trademark style of Dutch artist Parra. His ties to music are well known, so here the collaborative effort has merit beyond hype… dare we say The Perfect Unison? Purchase of the headphone will begin in earnest at Parra’s newest solo outing (to the Boo Hoo), being held at Paris’ Lazy Dog. (Via Guillotine).
